ABOUT US

Our Story

#LOVEWINS was started on October 3rd, two days after the event because my timeline was flooded with stories about him. It greatly saddened me because being there that night, I saw humanity answer back with “not today evil”. I simply wanted to flood my timeline with #LOVEWINS moments of happiness and love that people had been experiencing. I needed that to combat all my racing thoughts as I was trying to process what I had just been through. The last 90 days have been a whirlwind of events, emotions and movement that has taken my little idea and turned it into a full blown movement.

It is life changing and I truly believe with every ounce that makes me, that “A random act of kindness WILL change the world!” I know this because it’s changing my world. Thank you for believing in the movement. We are just getting started!

DSGII-Founder

Mission Statement:

To Honor and remember the 58 lives lost on October 1, 2017 by performing random acts of kindness and remaining a constant foundation of support for the Route 91 Family.

Our Vision:

Our vision is to spread love. To make it known that although there was a tragic event that took place and took the lives of 58 amazing people, hate will not prevail. We will move forward and make sure they are not forgotten.

Our Future Goals:

We want to maintain a level of support for the angel’s families and the injured survivors. We plan to start college funds for the children left without a parent, send flowers to a mother who no longer has her child, and genuinely be there for everyone who needs support. We will forever honor our 58 angels, reminding the world that LOVE WINS ALWAYS.
